Case Study: Texas’s Leading Electric Cooperative achieves NERC-CIP compliance with Securden Unified PAM

Texas’s Leading Electric Cooperative achieves NERC-CIP compliance and serves 60 counties with Securden

The customer, a leading electric cooperative in Texas, faced challenges achieving NERC-CIP compliance. Their manual password management for service accounts caused unexpected downtime, and a lack of visibility into admin rights usage hindered their progress. They sought a solution from vendor Securden, choosing their Unified PAM product to automate access control and enforce least privilege.

Securden implemented its Unified PAM solution to automate password rotations, manage account dependencies, and eliminate local admin rights on endpoints. This provided the necessary controls and detailed audit trails for compliance. The results included streamlined privileged access, the elimination of unnecessary downtime, and improved operational efficiency. Securden's solution provided the cooperative with a robust and easily demonstrable way to meet all NERC-CIP requirements.
